Stockholm, Venice

Stockholm, the largest city in Scandinavia and the capital of Sweden, is often called Venice of the North. Located on 14 islands, it boasts 57 bridges that gracefully raise out of the crystal-clear water, which is so clean that you can go swimming or fishing in the very heart of the city. This waterfront city is rich with history, exciting architecture, museums, castles and the old town called Gamla Stan, where also the Royal Palace is located. The area, which dates from the 13th century is considered one of the best preserved medieval city centres in the world. At the same time, it is also the best place to discover the history of Stockholm. The most popular museum is Vasa Museum, displaying ship that spent 330 years at the bottom of the city's harbour.
